ABB 3AUA0000227409 HVAC Drive - UL NEMA Type 1
Part Number: 3AUA0000227409
Quick Summary
ABB 3AUA0000227409 HVAC drive provides precise motor control for commercial and industrial HVAC systems. This packaged solution reduces install time and wiring complexity by integrating drive, disconnect, and protection in a single enclosure. It carries UL-listed protection and a UL (NEMA) Type 1 enclosure, plus electronic motor overload protection for reliable operation in harsh environments. The ACH580 Packaged Drive family supports 1 to 350 hp at 230/460/575 V and includes a door-mounted control panel with graphical display for local control, plus provisions for external control connections and serial communications capability. For engineers and procurement teams, this translates to faster commissioning, easier maintenance, and a smaller footprint—especially when space and electrical code compliance drive project timelines.
Product Information
Extended Description
3AUA0000227409 ABB: The ACH580 Packaged Drive includes an ACH580 drive in a UL (NEMA) Type 1, 12 or 3R enclosure with either an input disconnect switch and fast acting fuses or an input circuit breaker. It is available from 1 to 350 hp at 230/460/575 V. The ACH580 Packaged Drive provides a door-mounted input disconnect switch (padlockable in the OFF position), electronic motor overload protection, a door-mounted control panel with graphical display for local control, provisions for external control connections, and serial communications capability
Feature → Business Impact → Application: The packaged UL Type 1 enclosure with an input disconnect switch and fast acting fuses or an input circuit breaker reduces panel depth, wiring complexity, and safety risk, enabling quicker commissioning on new builds or retrofits in commercial buildings and industrial facilities. This translates into shorter project timelines and lower installation costs for HVAC drives serving air handling units and packaged equipment. Feature → Business Impact → Application: The ACH580 Packaged Drive offers 1 to 350 hp at 230/460/575 V, providing scalable motor control for a wide range of HVAC motors while using standard power distribution, simplifying procurement and stocking for maintenance teams. Applications include fans, pumps, and compressor loads where precise speed control yields energy savings. Feature → Business Impact → Application: A door-mounted control panel with a graphical display enables local tuning, fault diagnosis, and rapid parameter changes on site, reducing downtime and service calls. This is especially valuable in retrofit projects and retrofit-to-new controls scenarios in large facilities. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Serial communications capability and provisions for external control connections enable seamless integration with building management systems and PLC-based control architectures, facilitating synchronized operation with other HVAC equipment and centralized monitoring. Applications span centralized energy management, demand response, and smart-building initiatives. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Electronic motor overload protection protects motors from thermal damage and facilitates maintenance planning, reducing unexpected outages and extending motor life. This is critical for continuous operation in critical environments, such as clean rooms, data centers, and process cooling. Feature → Business Impact → Application: The compact, packaged design reduces footprint and simplifies field installation, supporting space-constrained mechanical rooms and retrofit projects where panel space is at a premium and code compliance is mandatory.

FAQs
This packaged drive integrates an ACH580 unit in a UL Type 1 enclosure with a door-mounted disconnect. Plan for 230/460/575 V supply, ensure space for service access, and verify external control connections and serial communications are wired per ABB guidelines. Also confirm enclosure routing and local control panel accessibility. Coordinate with electrical codes and site wiring practices to avoid heat buildup and allow safe padlock operations.
The ACH580 Packaged Drive is designed for air handling units by combining drive, disconnect, and protection in one compact enclosure. It supports common AHU voltages and motor sizes, simplifies wiring, and provides a local control panel for on-site setup. When installing, verify fit in the equipment space, ensure proper ventilation, and plan for external control connections to synchronize with the AHU controller.
The package features a UL-listed protection scheme and a UL (NEMA) Type 1 enclosure for indoor use, plus electronic motor overload protection to prevent motor overheating. A door-mounted input disconnect with padlockable OFF position enhances safety. These features simplify compliance with electrical codes and reduce risk during maintenance and operation.
Yes. The drive provides serial communications capability and external control connections, enabling integration with BMS and PLC-based controls. This supports remote monitoring, configurable start/stop sequencing, and coordinated control with other HVAC equipment, while preserving reliable local operation in case of network issues.
The device handles 1 to 350 hp and operates at 230/460/575 V, covering a broad spectrum of commercial and industrial HVAC motors. The design includes an input disconnect option and UL/NEMA-compliant enclosure, allowing scalable installations and straightforward upgrades without changing the control architecture.
